Spoilers Saved My Life Chapter 11 A New Beginning
The Cross family pulled every string they had to try to save Gideon, claiming the recordings had been fabricated and the evidence was insufficient."So rich people think they can get away with anything? Not this time."But Gavin had already prepared for that. He submitted an overwhelming chain of evidence to prosecutors."We have audio and video recordings, bank transfer records, proof of the doctor's bribery, and the forensic report confirming the helicopter sabotage."No matter how powerful the Cross family was, even they could not escape evidence this airtight.What shocked prosecutors most was Lucy's decision to come forward and testify.She laid out the entire truth, how the Cross family took her from an orphanage and trained her to become the "York family's daughter.""She finally found the courage to be herself," read one comment. "Maybe the fake heiress can be saved after all.""I was chosen by the Cross family when I was 4 years old," she explained. "Every day, I had t

I thought, "So this is how I die…"Someone wrote, "Somebody save her! Wendy can't seriously die like this, right?"Just then, I heard a faint noise behind one of the bookshelves. A concealed door swung open.Lucy, her face streaked with soot, reached out to me. "Come on! This place is about to collapse!"In the end, we barely escaped the fire and hid inside a rock grotto in the York Estate's garden."Why did you save me?" I asked between ragged breaths.She let out a bitter laugh. "You were right. I've always been a pawn. Gideon's already abandoned me. They kidnapped you and raised me in your place so they could control the York family someday. I'm a victim too."I took her hand. "Then, let's fight the Cross family together. You know their secrets, and I have the York family's resources."She hesitated for a moment, then gave a firm nod. "Okay. I'll work with you.""The plan is simple. I'll pretend I hate you, and that'll let you get close to Gideon.""Double agent arc! Siste

Without revealing anything, I began planning my counterattack. "Announce our medical AI partnership ahead of schedule, and start a stock buyback to stabilize investor confidence."…Two days later, market sentiment flipped completely. Not only did the York Group recover, but its stock also climbed another 15 percent.Gideon's scheme collapsed. Word was that his former upperclassman had taken devastating losses and was absolutely furious.Before I could fully enjoy the victory, I noticed something strange while washing my face. My usual facial cleanser carried a faint almond scent, a classic warning sign of cyanide.I stopped using it immediately and had it tested. Sure enough, it contained toxic chemicals strong enough to burn skin.Security footage showed Lucy entering my bathroom while I was out and lingering over my toiletries for several minutes.I had every intention of exposing her on the spot, but as I passed through the back courtyard, I overheard Lucy arguing on the pho

Claire broke down instantly, wrapping me in a tight embrace. "Wendy, you're my daughter!"Tears streamed down Gavin's face as he gripped my hand, trembling. "I'm sorry. I came too late."Once the news spread, the York Group executives rushed to the hospital one after another, each staring at me in shock.Lucy burst into the room, screaming hysterically. "That's impossible! The test results have to be wrong!"She lunged for the DNA report like a madwoman. "I'm the York family's daughter! I'm the real one!""She is so dramatic." I saw the comment. "The truth's already out, so what exactly is she still performing for?'Claire shot her a frigid look. "Lucy, you've deceived us for 10 years. It's over."I looked at Lucy's devastated expression, my emotions conflicted. "I understand your situation. We can coexist peacefully."A vicious glint flashed through Lucy's eyes as she shot Gideon, who was standing outside the door, a meaningful look.I caught the exchange immediately. Those

At the hospital, Lucy lay in bed, looking deathly pale. The doctor beside her wore an uncomfortable expression."We can't determine the exact cause yet. It may be a viral infection, but she'll need to be monitored for a few days."Gideon stood nearby, holding Lucy's hand with practiced concern, though I caught the smug look that flickered in his eyes.'Those two really are putting on the performance of a lifetime,' I thought. 'It's disgusting.'"The blood test will have to wait until Lucy recovers," he said. "She's far too weak right now."I pretended to head for the restroom but quietly followed him after he left the room. He slipped into the stairwell and began speaking with a man in a white lab coat.I pulled out my phone and quickly snapped a photo.Gideon was handing over a thick stack of cash. "Keep stalling them," he said. "I don't care what it takes. Just don't let them do the DNA test."I quietly backed away, sent the photo to myself as a backup, and went to find Gavin

Claire led me into the living room and handed me a mug of warm lemon honey water. "My daughter loved this when she was little. Every time, she wanted exactly three slices of lemon. No more, no less."I took the mug and instinctively checked the lemon slices. Exactly three. "I… I've always had it this way."Tears welled in Claire's eyes. "Do you remember what scared you most when you were little?""Thunderstorms. I'd crawl under the bed to hide, and only my mom could ever find me."Claire's head snapped up, tears spilling over. "Only I knew she hid under the bed!"Her tears shattered my heart. The bond between mother and daughter was impossible to fake.…In the end, Gavin decided to let me stay at the York Estate. "You'll stay in the guest room tonight. Tomorrow morning, we'll do the DNA test."Lucy stood at the top of the stairs, pale-faced and silent. She did not dare object, but the hatred in her eyes was impossible to miss.Late that night, as I was trying to sort throug
